Why did organism A produce about 10 times more ATP than organism B in the same length of time? What type of cellular respiration is organism A performing? What type of cellular respiration is organism B performing? Be specific!
Added by Alejandra G.
Step 1
Organism A is likely performing aerobic respiration, which uses oxygen to fully oxidize glucose, resulting in a high yield of ATP. Organism B is likely performing anaerobic respiration or fermentation, which occurs in the absence of oxygen and results in a lower Show more…

1) Two different bacterial species require the same amount of ATP over time, but one of them undergoes full cellular respiration while the other uses fermentation. Answer the following questions comparing these two species. A. Compare the rate of glucose consumption by each species? Do they use the same amount of glucose or does one use more than the other? B. Compare the rate of glycolysis in the two species. Is one faster or slower than the other?

Examine the metabolic rates of two different organisms (A and B) that were placed in three different temperatures. Environmental temperature 1 °C 25 °C 35 °C Organism A 0.124 mlO2/hr/g 0.265 mlO2/hr/g 0.325 mlO2/hr/g Organism B 0.635 mlO2/hr/g 0.511 mlO2/hr/g 0.169 mlO2/hr/g

Imagine there are two different cells, cell A and cell B. Explain why lactic acid, carbon dioxide and only 2 ATP are produced in cell A and carbon dioxide, water and up to 32 ATP are produced in cell B.
